what i managed to gleam about brace`s injury is that the MRI shows that he may have dodged a bullet. who or what lead the reporter to say that is unknown. brandon merriweather and terrance wheatley also were 'dinged up' thursday evening. no word as of yet is avilaable. while i feel relativley good about brace, Twheatley, who has had a good camp, seems like he suffered a pretty bad sprain of the knee, if not an acl tear. also, BB comments about injuries seemed to me to be telling about why edelman hasn`t been seen. at first it didn`t appear to be serious, and NOW...where is he? news?

if wheatley does have a sprained knee (not sure where that guy came up with that because that has not been reported anywhere), than maybe he will go on pup. that could actually save him because by the time the 6 weeks are up someone in the secondary is bound to have gone down (the way things go with this team).

good to hear about brace. its amazing how in 2 weeks he went from non-factor to an important piece.

the one that has me concerned is edleman, because his ailment is so mysterious. and i think he's primed to have a very big year. he's just one of those guys that makes plays when he is out there.

hopefully Brace will be ready for the season opener, as they are pretty thin on the DLine even before he went down. Its hard to believe but it wasn't that long ago the DLine was a strength of the team w/ guys like Seymour, Wilfork, Ty Warren & Jarvis Green & Mike Wight was a pretty good backup for that group. I gotta believe they will be looking to sign someone when other teams make their final cuts.

Glad that Brace is fine, I hope Wheatley is fine because Wilhite needs his walking papers.

Meriweather looked like he was coming into his own, I pray he's alright. He is, without a doubt, the best player on the defense. It looks like he sured up his tackling because that was a big problem for him last year.

Why do people keep asking about injuries? No one knows anything except that Brace appears to have suffered a minor ankle sprain. None of these guys will play against the Giants, so feel free to go ahead and panic if that is something you're gonna do anyway on Thursday night when they don't dress for the game. They may be returning to practice tomorrow. They may be going on IR tomorrow. Knowing their situations will not help the team win on opening day. Injuries happen. If Meriweather suffered a major injury the secondary is probably screwed. BM is everyone's favorite whipping boy simply because "he isn't Rodney". We'll see how "overrated" he is if James 'bad angle' Sanders has to start in his place. Wheatley was on the roster bubble anyway. If he goes on IR it's something we should all be able to deal with. Edelman is a mystery, just like last week. The first injury report comes out in 9 or 10 days. maybe that will help clarify things, but probably not.
